Cockburn discovered numerous painted cave-shelters in the Kaimur ranges in the Mirzapur District in Uttar Pradesh. Here, hunting scenes show men, armed with harpoons having stone shaftheads, attacking rhinoceroses. These paintings may be attributed to the end of the Palaeolithic period. In the Bellary District, more than 20 groups of animal drawings and hunting-scenes with men armed with javelins and shields are painted in cave-shelters.
